5 days in Kuala Terengganu Itinerary

Once a small fishing village, Kuala Terengganu is now a developing city where skyscrapers often stand shoulder to shoulder with traditional kampong-style houses.

Step off the beaten path and head to Penarik Beach and Teluk Kalong Beach. Attractions like Al-Muktafi Billah Shah Mosque and Turtle Sculpture make great kid-friendly stops. Change things up with these side-trips from Kuala Terengganu: Sekayu Waterfall (in Kuala Berang) and Kemasik Beach (in Kemasik). There's much more to do: don't miss a visit to Taman Monumen, enjoy the sand and surf at Pandak Beach, and look for gifts at Noor Arfa Craft Complex.
